Lyrics » Feels Like Today

When the Sand Runs Out
I spent the morning at an old friend's grave Flowers and Amazing Grace, he was a good man He spent his whole life spinnin' his wheels Never knowin' how the real thing feels He never took a chance or took the time to dance And I stood there thinking as I said goodbye Today is the first day of the rest of my life

I'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' on And learn how to face my fears Love with all of my heart, make my mark I wanna leave something here

Go out on a ledge, with out any net That's what I'm gonna be about Yeah I wanna be runnin' When the sand runs out

'Cause people do it everyday Promise themselves they're gonna change I've been there, but I'm changin' from the inside out

That was then and this is now I'm a new man, yeah, I'm a brand new man And when they carve my stone they'll write these words "Here lies a man who lived life for all that its worth"

And as the cold wind blows across the graveyard I think I hear the voice of my old friend whisper in my ear

I'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' on Learn how to face my fears Love with all of my heart, make my mark I wanna leave something here

Go out on a ledge, with out any net That's what I'm gonna be about Yeah I wanna be runnin' When the sand runs out
